July 2011 TUSAL [b]

Here is my second July TUSAL entry. Two finishes this month, Vulpix and Ninetales and my giveaway piece. As for the giveaway, I am feeling super guilty. It's taken me so long and it's been finished for over a week! But it's white on black and my camera just refuses to cooperate. I took some blurry iPhone photos as a last resort which I guess I will use to post when Yuuna receives it! It's on the way, honest! =P

In my jar, there's a whole lotta gold. I put my Hogwarts Crest back on my giant scroll and I have been up to some froggin'. I just can't count; Harry Potter makes me too hyper to focus. That is my excuse. ♥

TUSAL jar contents: Hogwarts Crest, Psylocke, Dark Toon Link, Yoshi's Island Biscornu, Robo + Atropos, Baby Mario Bib, Jill and Vincent Valentine, Oracle of Seasons Link, Donkey Kong, Pan's Shadow, Vegeta, Cubone and Marowak, Nothing is True, Vulpix and Ninetales, [giveaway]

TUSAL backdrop: The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

This Zelda poster is probably my favourite. I have half a mind to frame it, the art is so beautiful. I made it look like Midna is riding the threads instead of wolf Link. ♥

It's Ninetales!

"Its nine tails are said to be imbued with a mystic power. It can live for a thousand years." So says the Pearl Pokedex for #38 Ninetales. With this finish, I am done with my two patches for the Patchwork gym. Bring on the second Generation!

Vulpix and Ninetales

It's Almost Ninetales!

This past weekend was another International Hermit and Stitch Weekend hosted by Joysze of Random Ramblings! I got quite a bit done on my last Pokemon patch. Just have to fill in the remaining tails:

I had wanted to completely finish it but I had to watch Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 a couple times. After seeing it on Friday, I wanted to work on my Hogwarts Crest which has mostly been ignored this year. But I had to finish this and my giveaway project. The reason that isn't done is because I scrapped my original design. I put many hours into stitching it but I just hated it and couldn't possibly give it to someone. =P

It's Vulpix!

I watched the entire first season of Game of Thrones and finished Vulpix maybe thirty seconds before the final end credits. Good timing. =]

What the Pearl Pokedex has to say about Vulpix: It controls balls of fire. As it grows, its six tails split from their tips to make more tails. Not as dramatic as Cubone, to be sure.

Who're Those Pokemon?! ♥ [2nd Edition]

Just started on my second patch for the Patchwork Pokemon Gym. A lot less grass this time. Hurray! I decided to keep the same colours as Cubone & Marowak for consistency.

I have been stitching this in the hand so it is wrinkly. This time I used DMC aida which is 100% smoother than Charlescraft or whatever I was using. I think I am going to watch Game of Thrones and stitch up the first Pokemon right away. =]

July 2011 TUSAL [a]

Not a very productive month for me. I did finish my first Patchwork Gym patch and a tiny Assassin's Creed stitching. I did start on my giveaway stitching. It's much larger than I first intended so it's not done yet as I had planned. =[
